The most straightforward thing you can do is pick up a cheap TV antenna and a basic battery powered radio.
Over the air TV is actually really good now. The switch to digital brought full HD over the air. And local FM/AM radio will broadcast info in an emergency. Can get a weather radio too if you want to.
